Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with primary or secondary immunodeficiency disease who have developed adverse reactions to products available on the market such as Cuvitru® (Shire), Hizentra® (CSL Behring) or 10% Gammunex® (Grifols), may benefit from utilizing 16.5% Cutaquig® (Octapharma).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective interventional study before and after clinically driven change in treatment formulation.

Polyvalent immunoglobulin treatment is used in patients with primary or secondary antibody deficiency diseases to prevent and lower the risk of infection. There are multiple products available in the market. Most products are administered via intravenous route such as Privigen® (CSL Behring), Gammunex® (Grifols), and Panzyga® (Octapharma). Up until recently, there have been only two products that are licensed for subcutaneous administration - 20% Hizentra® (CSL Behring) and 10% Gammunex® (Grifols).

In our clinical experience, approximately 10% of patients treated with 20% Hizentra® developed adverse reactions. Some are mild and tolerable. Some are moderate to severe and required alteration of treatment plan: For example, changing the product from 20% Hizentra® to 10% Gammunex®. However, this results in a 100% increase in the injection volume due to the lesser concentration of the product, but a decrease in viscosity - both of which might alter overall tolerance. Likewise, any new treatment may bring new adverse events such as rash.

In 2018, there will be two additional subcutaneous immunoglobulin products available in Canada - 16.5% Cutaquig® (Octapharma) and 20% Cuvitru® (Shire).

Even though both new products are licensed and proven to be efficacious regarding preventing significant infection (1,2), the relative safety, tolerability, patient satisfaction, treatment-associated cost has not been studied in patients using the 16.5% Cutaquig®. The study product will be provided through the Canadian Blood Service (CBS) on a special request basis which is a standard procedure for any patients who are intolerable to inventory products.
